At 15 months you are walking (running wherever you can), climbing onto furniture, stairs, step stools and anything that looks challenging enough but not too challenging. Which is why you have no big desire to climb down our scary staircase and that is perfectly acceptable by us!
You must have had a growth spurt this month, because Dr. Sergis says you are in the 95th percentile in height (32.5 inches) and holding steady at 50th percentile in weight (22 pounds), and yes you still have a tiny head (25th). I am a little skeptical on the height measurement, since this photo doesn't look like a really tall 15 month old, but I guess we'll know in another 3 mos how accurate it is. At least I know you are growing and healthy, despite having your bad Mama dislocate your elbow last week. Next time I will let you fall and not pull you up by the arm, because clearly a fall would have been less painful than having your elbow popped out of it's socket!
Luckily you forgive easily and are still giving me the most wonderful hugs and kisses. We are only understanding a few of your words, (Mama, Dada, uh-oh, more, milk) and you are signing the two essentials (all done & more), but you certainly have way more to say than that (we just haven't figured out what that is).
One of your favorite games is "Where's Lorelei?" Here's a snippet:
Where's Lorelei?
There she is!
Where's Lorelei?
There she is! That never gets old (for you).
You are fiercely loved by your sister!
And enjoy chasing after her and doing whatever it is that she is doing,
like figuring out how to ride this scooter
You are growing up crazy fast, but we are enjoying every minute of it. Happy 1 1/4 Birthday Lorelei!
